Yesterday we had an amazing day, we were sailing to las Animas looking for the whales and dolphins and 1 nm away from la Reyna we found the orcas, we spent a very nice time with them, the 1st jump from the skiff was the best for our guests because they were swimming directly to us, after the 3rd jump they started to go down and it was difficult to follow them again, our guests came to the boat with an amazing smile as well for many of the crew it was the 1st time that we could watch them.

We dove into the shallow reef next to the sea lion colony where we could swim and interact with some sea lions and got to see very close the big males.

The diving is great, loads of very interactive sea lions, an incredible amount of tropical fishes, sea turtles, nudibranchs and if you are lucky sea horses… and during sailing, you can see and snorkel with dolphins or mobulas…
Read MoreThe dives have been really nice. I did not expect to dives to be so nice. I love finding small creatures to show to our guests and here I have plenty of opportunities to do this. We have found a lot of nudibranchs and even a seahorse. Besides diving and snorkeling with a big pod of dolphins, the landscapes are breathtaking. I love to see the desert mountains right next to all the different colors of blue and turquoise of the sea. And then the sunsets, one of the most beautiful I have ever seen.
Read MoreWhen I was a little girl, my parents gave me a coloring book that had hammerhead sharks in it. I was fascinated! When I became a diver as an adult I always remembered that coloring book and dreamed of seeing a hammerhead on a dive. Today I fulfilled that dream by seeing not one, but two hammerheads while diving!
Read MoreI can’t believe how fast time goes by on this ship it feels like yesterday when I boarded the ship. This trip will be in my memory as one of the best diving trips of my life. I appreciate the crew for helping me and making my trip the best trip I could have asked for.
